Welcome back! We hope everyone enjoyed spring break! We had a very productive 1st week back in school reading books about Earth & how we can help keep it clean & healthy. We learned about recycling, spoke about Earth Day & practiced singing songs for our Earth Day Celebration. Art projects included recycled materials. We can’t wait to show them off during our Earth Day Celebration.

Annaliese is a big sister! Her brother, Julian was born on Monday, April 9. Congratulations to the whole family!

Our children have been displaying a growing interest in writing & drawing & have been making good use of our writing center these days.
